Notre-Dame de Paris reopens: discover the 2024 Christmas Market
The reopening of Notre-Dame Cathedral in December 2024 will be marked by an exceptional event: the Paris Notre-Dame Christmas Market. A magical setting in the heart of Paris.
After years of restoration, Notre-Dame Cathedral will reopen its doors at the end of 2024. This long-awaited event, following the fire in 2019, marks the rebirth of an emblematic Paris monument. To mark the occasion, the Paris Notre-Dame 2024 Christmas Market promises to offer a magical experience for Parisians and visitors from all over the world. It will run from November 29 to December 24, 2024, adding a festive touch to this historic moment.
Located in Square René-Viviani, with a direct view of the restored cathedral, the market is distinguished by its commitment to promoting French craftsmanship. Over 40 chalets will offer unique creations, from jewelry to culinary products. All items are made locally by the artisans, highlighting French craftsmanship.
A Market under the sign of craftsmanship
Visitors will be able to discover a wide range of artisanal products made exclusively in France. The organizers select designers for the quality and authenticity of their work. From leather to ceramics, each stand will reveal unique pieces and a direct link with French traditions. What’s more, interaction with the artisans enriches the experience, revealing the secrets of their craft.
The market becomes a place of cultural discovery, while offering an alternative to standardized gifts. As you stroll among the chalets, you’ll feel the spirit of Christmas intertwined with the history of Paris.
A culinary and solidarity event
In addition to craft creations, they have added a catering area for this edition… Specialities from south-west France will delight gourmets. This gastronomic corner, with a breathtaking view of Notre-Dame, will allow you to take a gourmet break while remaining in the fairytale atmosphere of the market.
This year, the Marché de Noël Paris Notre-Dame is also taking on a solidarity dimension by collaborating with the Maison Harmonia association, dedicated to supporting young autistic people. Part of the profits will be donated to support this cause. So you can take part in a generous initiative while treating yourself to unique products.
A historic and extended setting
The market’s location was not chosen by chance. The immediate proximity of Notre-Dame adds a historical and cultural dimension to the event. This exceptional setting will become one of the highlights of Paris’ end-of-year festivities.
To celebrate the reopening of Notre-Dame, this year’s market will extend over 27 days, an extra week compared to previous editions. This will enable a greater number of visitors to enjoy the festivities.
